    volvo penta 4.3 error MID 187 FMI 9 PSID 200

    No, doubt it I'm looking at CCA and your current issue has nothing to do with the Bat unless the Bat is near dead and yours are not. The code (to my understanding) is there is no power to that part of the ECM.

    5.7 hard start

    Maybe my turn for new boat time

    OK, which one? If I get a 50CC install manual says it "should" give me 6.5 LtoL. But can I get 4 to 5 with another, but then the question will it work? Will steering be to heavy? I don't know but trying to research which would be correct I don't even know which one I have installed now

    4B creates more stern lift, 3B creates more bow lift The 4B on my new boat will propose if it doesn't get tucked in more as speed increases. 30 mph tried out around 15%, 35 mph 10% faster then that 0 trim

    Riser elbow & intermediate elbow

    Very likely but those parts may need to be longer with using a riser. Most Mercs I've seen only use one size of boots, so something have to be added to attach to exhaust Y pipe
